Cheap G-500 430w combo

Wow. That owner must have been a complete idiot. A real imbecile.:rofl:
 
All avionics have been pulled and are not included in sale. Not such a good deal,needs props and engines will require tear down,then add avionics. And skin repairs .
 
Too bad Wentworth got it and not someone that wants to put it back in the air. :( It would've been a good project since it was pretty well-sorted prior to the incident.
 
The engines are still good though, they were at idle power and the props went through several revolutions settling in. Be good for someone building a kit with an IO-470

Oh....and where's the autopilot? :yikes::rofl:
 
Seriously, it was just a gear up. Does it really matter in a eBay ad HOW it happened? Nice work with the photoshopping of the panel to "remove" the avionics. I suspect they already got what they wanted out of the plane and they just don't want to have to send a truck out to pick up the rest. Curious what it will end up going for.
 
Id imagine if you're a APIA with time on your hands and a hard on for 300 series twins that might not be a bad buy, presuming the engines arnt totally toast.

Seems like not enough work to warrant scrapping it.

Needing to add full avionics kinda sucks.

People could have had it complete with no damage for less than the cost to put it back to how it was, they didn't do it then, I don't see it happening now. It's Wentworth so if they don't get a stupid bid on it, they'll keep it around for parting out.

That's why I said a APIA with a hard on for a 310. They don't seem to sell, of course that seems true of most piston twins.
 
Man!

Wentworth sells salvage avionics for near new prices :goofy:
 
All the engine and prop controller are rusty....what's up with that? Sounds fishy to me.
 
Henning, I hear you're in the market for another plane. This might be a good one for you. Heard you have a lot of 310 time.
 
What's the letter designation on the IO-470 in that plane?

As a side comment - any twins built with IO-470-J or -K?

Well, it is only a light gear up. Didn't you read the description? ;)

There were more exclamation points than there were words!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Wentworth obviously lacks an English major on their staff.

Yeah, but they don't lack creative writing skills.
